Formula to find the arc length is:
Where, s= arc length,
r = radius of the circle
\theta = central angle in degrees.
According to the given problem, \theta= 150 and r =2.4.
So, first step is to plug in these values in the above formula to get the arc length.
=
So, arc length is 
.
An ant on the ground is 22 feet from the foot of a tree. She looks up at a bird at the top of the tree, and her line of sight makes 30 degrees with the ground. How far is she from the top of the tree? (Hint: Find x.)
33.6 feet
1. You need to make a proportion
2. Your proportion would be 8 over 10 equals X over 15
3. Your equation would be 10x=15(8)
4. 15x8=125
5. 10x=125
6. you would divide 125 by 10
7. thats your answer
Simple, what you're basically doing is simplifying,
well, you have 3x and you have
12/3=4
and you can "cancel" out an x, making your answer,
